The lost city of Atlantis was a story by Plato in 355 BC. C. who claimed that Poseidon was the god of the sea who made the city of Atlantis. This city boasted of hot and cold water sources, walls and irrigation system for cultivation outside the city. The attraction was a temple in the center of the city on top of a hill that had a statue of Poseidon in a horse-drawn chariot with wings. Some supported this imagination while others argued it false.

In 1800, Ignatius Donnelly supported this story by stating in his book titled ‘Antediluvian World’ that such a city existed in the center of the Atlantic Ocean. The Atlantic civilization there was the first civilization that later spread to other colonies. This city was believed to have been ruined by a natural disaster.

Contrary theories were that since the sediments on the ocean floor could not have completely covered the city considering the period of its existence, this theory was not true.

Another history professor, KT Frost, believed that the city existed, but it was located on the island of Crete, which was home to the Minoan civilization. He claimed that this civilization was truly prosperous in that an efficient navy was in force. Due to the eruption of a volcano 10 miles from this island, the entire civilization with the empire suddenly disappeared. There was a similarity in this story with the one proposed by Plato. In fact, most people believe that the legendary city was actually located on Crete. The fight between whether this story is fact or fiction is still going on.
